Ghost Recon Breakpoint: Explaining its Max Gear Score and Level

A look at the Maximum Gear Score and Level in Ubisoft’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint has officially launched for Standard Edition owners who understandably didn’t want to fork up more money to play the game a few days earlier. Below you’ll find the Max Gear Score and Level in the newest Tom Clancy instalment.

There are a few points of contention in Ghost Recon Breakpoint such as its “hilarious amount of microtransactions,” but the instalment is exciting because of its emphasis on realism, immersion and survival.

It’s more of what made Wildlands so replayable and brilliant, but it does have new aspects such as a Gear Level system.

What is gear levelling in Ghost Recon Breakpoint?

There are two types of Levelling in Ghost Recon Breakpoint: Player and Gear. Player Level essentially awards your character with skill points, whereas Gear is based on the quality of equipped weapons/items.

Certain Gear Scores are recommended for specific missions, and they allow you to take out drone enemies quicker and easier as well as endure more damage. Ghost Recon Breakpoint‘s Raid zones are also hidden behind fundamental Gear Score Levels.

Boasting a higher Gear Score will allow you to unlock better equipment and loot as well, but the game’s enemies themselves also have Gear Scores. Goons with higher Gear Scores than yourself will be harder to sneak upon and they will also deal significantly more damage.

Now that you know the basics of what Gear Levelling is, it’s time to discuss its Max Score.

What is the max gear score in Ghost Recon Breakpoint?

The Max Gear Score isn’t officially known, but word around Reddit suggests either 250 or 300. Some players were worried that the Level would be capped off at 150, so either of the aforementioned answers are welcomed.

250 seems to be the consensus online, but a Reddit user named PizentuDewind has linked to the above YouTube video as proof that 300 is the highest Ubisoft have shown.

Whether it’s 250 or 300, it’s inevitable that the Gear Score will eventually increase with future updates.
